Hi all,

I missed the rally today as 90% of my fields are rolled and seeded, with in  2 weeks I will be getting very low on land, as most is growing now, the farmer has took full advantage of the weather this year.......back to the pasture  :'(
Still I managed 2 hammereds and a lovely full noble coin weight, its a massive lump I was a little surprised when I dug it up, I thought it was a lead token at first, then I wiped of the mud to see the shield and ship :) its a first for me, and being the big boy makes it better.
Iv not run the weight under the tap just wiped the mud off with dry fingers and left the deeper mud in place, then used the nose grease trick, its simple rub your finger on your nose then on to the items high points, look at the as found picture then the picture on the scales, its brings the detail right out..... I have a tub of Renaissance wax polish but never use it on items like this as it will be to shiny to take a photo and you will regret it after.   

Now that's worth missing the rally for Dale. A good days results and well done on the Noble weight. Now go find the coin  ;) ;D

Val

very nice finds well searched  ;)

You jammy little sod ........ I took you out with me detecting 20 years ago in fields that have prodeced good finds after every plough  and I thought they had given everything they had. You are still pulling things out son well done   ( im going to follow you tonight )  I mean  tomorrow  lol nice finds Dale

Well done Dale ,I'm not jealous honest

I remember dad making me run miles between you and John over the fields with your finds, lol now its my boys turn ;D
I'm out after the F1 if your up for a few hours tomorrow, to get the dust off yours :D

Yes im up for that as long as I can walk directly in front of you  and you machine is switched off   see what the weather is like first 

Id love to find the coin Val, friends and family around me has but its just not my turn yet, one day tho :)

A very nice coin weight Dale. Good to still be able to make out so much detail. Well done.

Cheers Alan, im very pleased with it being a first for me, and the condition...... it makes me wonder why people find so many off the noble weights and not the coins? surely there must be more coins that weights.
But thinking about it their is many reasons why.
 

What a muddy mess had 20 mins out with liner, before it got to much, I was walking in front of him with my machine off as promised ;) ;) but still ended up with more so I don't know what happened there ???
plenty of signals just to much rain, I managed a early milled silver, and what looks to be a disc brooch? any help would be great :)

nice finds mate  :)

Before I even looked at the finders name I knew who it was by the baby/girly like fingers and the missing thumb muscles that has allowed dale to claim disability... Well done dale I'm still winning the hammered count though :-D

disability I wish....... il catch you up on the hammered count don't worry about that mate ;)

nice finds dale,you sure got the midas touch
